The Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) has settled on Asante Kotoko and Ivorian giants Asec Mimosas for this year’s President’s Cup.
The thrilling encounter between the two African football powerhouses has been set for Tuesday, March 5, 2024 just a day before Ghana’s 67th Independence Day celebration.
The game will be hosted at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi, with both head of states, Nana Akufo-Addo and Alassane Ouattara expected to attend the event.
Hearts of Oak are the current holders of the President Cup after beating Asante Kotoko narrowly in the 2023 edition.
Meanwhile, Asante Kotoko are the record holders of the Cup competition, with eight titles under their belt.
The GHALCA President's Cup is an annual football event that brings together two top clubs at the end of the season. Also known as the Republic Day Celebrations Cup, the match is held in honour of the sitting President of Ghana and is typically played in July to coincide with Ghana's Republic Day celebrations.
